Public bug reported:
I'd like to render my fonts in different hintstyles.
To be precise, I have chinese font and western language fonts. For the
chinese font, I'd like it to be rendered in hintfull, but for other
fonts, I'd prefer hintslight.
Ok, I configured in the fontconfig file, but it didn't make any change.
All the fonts are in the same hintstyle, depending on the configuration
in gnome-appearance-properties.
I googled for quite a long time and finally I got one solution.
In the file cairo-ft-font.c, in function _cairo_ft_options_merge, just
comment the following line:
// if (options->base.hint_style == CAIRO_HINT_STYLE_DEFAULT)
and recompile, now everything works fine. The fonts are rendered
according to the hintstyles configured in fontconfig.
I don't know if this is really a bug of libcairo. If I'm wrong, please
accept my apology.
